MemoryError: out of memory
by Jonathan Salazar Santos 27 Jan '11

27 Jan '11

Hi Comunity, I have been in troubles with Zope2.10.5-final since 4 moths ago, related to the "MemoryError: out of memory" (in the event.log), every three or fourth days (more or less) the Zope starts to say in our web: value error: Memory, and stops to serve some pages (not all), usually the pages that serve file contents (to download, convert to pdf or view online). I solve the problem (when appears) by rebooting the zope server, but its not a solutions, because I dont know when the error its coming ¿Can you help me to giving me some light to solve the problem? I have 2gb of RAM, and the server (FreeBSD) it says no-overloaded, just have 2 services, web(zope) and database(mysql). I think its something related to the cache memory or kind of (I changed some values in config file but not success). See some of my event.log Traceback (innermost last): Module ZPublisher.Publish, line 119, in publish Module ZPublisher.mapply, line 88, in mapply Module ZPublisher.Publish, line 42, in call_object Module OFS.DTMLMethod, line 144, in __call__ - <DTMLMethod at /xxxx/index_html used for /xxxx/suscribete/adminNewsletter> - URL: http://xxxx/index_html/manage_main - Physical Path: /xxxx/index_html Module DocumentTemplate.DT_String, line 476, in __call__ Module OFS.DTMLMethod, line 137, in __call__ - <DTMLMethod at /xxxx/suscribete/adminNewsletter/third_header> - URL: http://xxxx/suscribete/adminNewsletter/third_header/manage_main - Physical Path: /xxxx/suscribete/adminNewsletter/third_header Module DocumentTemplate.DT_String, line 476, in __call__ Module DocumentTemplate.DT_In, line 703, in renderwob Module Products.MailHost.SendMailTag, line 114, in render Module Products.MIMETools.MIMETag, line 198, in render Module MimeWriter, line 177, in lastpart MemoryError: out of memory -- Lic.

Preferred non-Products Initialization Approach?
by Jeff Rush 27 Jan '11

27 Jan '11

In my reading I can see there are two ways to initialize a Product that is not sitting in the Products directory: 1. use ZCML with the five:registerPackage directive 2. declare in setup.py a "zope2.products" entrypoint Which is the preferred way these days? Is there a subtle difference? In particular I'm having trouble with an Extensions/ subdirectory of the Product -not- being found in an import stmt when I moved it outside the Products directory. -Jeff

Monkey patch for BLOB support in OFS.Image Images and Files
by William Heymann 10 Jan '11

10 Jan '11

I have a monkey patch here that I would like comments on it and to see how it works for others. https://github.com/Immudzen/MonkeyOFSImageFile I have been testing it for a few weeks now and I have not run into any problems with it. It works on Zope 2.13 and it should work on Zope 2.12 also without any issues. All that is needed it is to put this in your Products dir and make sure you have BLOB support setup correctly. Once that is done all uses of the Image and File objects inside zope will save as BLOBs instead and existing objects can be converted to BLOB objects with a script I have in the README file. What I have found so far is that with this zope has a lower memory usage and also runs faster. So far in my testing it is about 33% lower memory usage and I am interested in how others find it. You can also find me in #zope as kosh if you have questions about it.

Trouble getting Zope 2.8/Python 2.3 to work in OS X 10.6
by Dan Gaibel 07 Jan '11

07 Jan '11

I apologize if this questions belongs in a different forum, but... I am having a heck of a time getting Python 2.3.5 installed in OS X 10.6 (Snow Leopard server.) I need it for a Zope 2.8.6 installation. OS X comes with Python 2.6.1 and I guess my plan is to have 2.3 installed alongside it. Neither MacPorts (a framework for installing ports of various programs to os x) nor Fink (essentially a port of apt-get / dpkg for os x) worked. MacPorts didn't have a port of python2.3 and Fink wouldn't compile. What I did to get it to the point where it is now: configure with: ./configure --enable-framework MACOSX_DEPLOYMENT_TARGET=10.5 --with- universal-archs=all --enable-toolbox-glue=false then run: export LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 next edit the resulting Makefile and remove the -Wno-long-double flag (it only appears once) finally, running 'sudo make' yields the error: libtool -o Python.framework/Versions/2.3/Python -dynamic -prebind - seg1addr 0x10000000 libpython2.3.a \ -framework System -lcc_dynamic -arch_only ppc - install_name /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.3/Python - compatibility_version 2.3 -current_version 2.3 libtool: can't locate file for: -lcc_dynamic libtool: file: -lcc_dynamic is not an object file (not allowed in a library) make: *** [Python.framework/Versions/2.3/Python] Error 1 I haven't been able to figure out that last error; commenting out the line it stems from breaks things, deleting just that particular flag (lcc_dynamic) breaks things, and googling didn't turn up any answers. If this is an inappropriate questions for this list, I apologize... where should I post? Thanks! Dan

Hello all Are there any current forums which integrate into Zope nicely? I have tried Zforum and Squishdot in the past but I don't think either of these two have been updated in quite a while? Thanks Rich
